CHAIRMAN OF THE
MEETING
Tli.it was a tremcn<loii.s aiiicounst; of pco[>li; wliich turned out Tncsil.'»y cvn- niiig, Marcli 11. at Memorial Hall, to greet the four <listinf;uislic(I men wlio tiarticipalc<l in tlie "Biff l-Uiii" whicli W.1S siveii miller the aiisiiicei of the Keil- Iiath Lyceum Bureau, GeorRe G. White¬ head, Fonim Director.
The first .speaker, liisliop Edwin II. lIURhcs, of (he Methodist Episcopal Church, presented liis reasons for being a I'roteitant in a scholarly, logical, ami inspiring manner. lie traced thc growth and developnienl of Protcstantibm and pointed out the i^aliciit principles for which it stands. He also explained in what respects its doctrines and pre¬ cepts differ from those' of thc Koman Catholic Churcli. One of thc argu¬ ments presciitetl by the Bishop xvas that Protestant countries ,'irc iiujre prosper¬ ous and more literate than Catholic countries. He spoke in part as follows: "VVc Protestants believe that aKUosti- cisin is the evasion of the supreme ques¬ tion ot life, and tlwt it fails in that glorious adventure wherein the intellect of man is joined by his sensibilities ui the demand for the living God." Christimi's Hcritaffc He paid tribute to thc Christian's heri¬ tage from the faith of the Jews', adding: "But wc do hclicvc that our faith makes clearer thc prophetical promises of re¬ demption; that it brings God nearer to the common experiences of life; and that Jesus really added vast things when He kept saying, "Yc have heanl that it hath heen said by those of old time- but / say unto you."
While comparing Christianity with agnosticism ani Judaism, Bishop Hughes stood with liis hamls clasped behind Iiim and his eyes often seemed to be close<l. There was nothing oratorical in his de¬ livery. But ivhcn he came to the reasons for his heing a Protestant as opposed to a Catholic, he grabbed his coat lapels, leaned forward toward his audience, and spoke with greater emphasis.
A Firmer Foundation
Bishop Hughes said he was born and reared ,a Protestant, but th.at "every thoughtfid man will insist that his faith shall have a firmer foundation thall a rocking cradle."
He pointed out that suice he was born outside the Catholic faith, thc only way he could be a member of that church would be by his private judgment. He then hit the Catholic's claim of authority in faith and morals, asking why his private judgment should from then on be denied its legitimacy in thc higher ranges of faith and morals.
"It is like telling reason tbat it has a right 'to reason reason out of reason, or telling judgment to determine lij! judg¬ ment that it mu.st surrender great areas of judgment," lie said.
Bishop Hughes also declared he is a Protestant because of the absence of re¬ strictions about worship, because he be¬ lieves his faith has an efficient relation to popular prosperity, because he believes democratic access to God has made democratic access to learning, and bc- cau.sc he believes the Protestant sys¬ tem of emphasis and worship profliiccs on the average the highest character.
"I am a Protestant, because as a Prot¬ estant I can he more genuinely citholic," he declared.
Superior Economically
He argued Ihat Protestant countries arc superior economically to Catholic countries. "Wc can certainly claim tli.it in a prcdomuiantly Protestant land the tables of individual and corporate pros¬ perity are not ivithout their lesson," he declared.
He charged that illiteracy figures are often appalling in countries .dominated by Catholicism, while in Protestant countries the vast proportion of the pop¬ ulation can read and write.
The second speaker was the famous agnostic of Chicago.
Clarence S. Darrow stejiped t<i th« rostrum as the big favorite, the one who made thii show, as uttesteil by round after round of applause. With be¬ nignity sitting paradoxically on liis dour countenance, be began slowly to chant his speech.
"Am 1 alone as an agnostic here to¬ night? If I am in thc niiiiorily, it is only another assurance that I'm right. Man inherently believes what he's told. The more unreasonable it is, the more steadfast man is in his belief.
The Ueijinuing uf WMoni
"Doubt is the begiimuig of wisdom. No person or group is ever great or good until he commences to doubt. If man had never doubted, we should still be living in cavt^s and worshiping snakes.

White Co., wben it presented to the pub¬ lic its store at IOC North High street, which has been greatly enlarged, en¬ tirely remodelc<I, newly equipped and carrying an entire new stock throughout.
This proved to be one of the most important events tbat has taken plaqe in Columbus retail merchandising cir¬ cles ui recent years, as it means that the Z. L. Wbite store which has enjoyed an enviable reputation for the past G9 years, from today nn will take its place as one of the finest deiiartment stores in the Middle West. The change which it has been undergoing since early tn January has been made throngh thc expenditure of a vast sum of money by the owners and the store is now modern to the last detail nnd in eiery sense that the word implicb.
Began at 7 P. M.
To bring about this stupendous trans¬ formation in the short ^leriod of a few weeks, workmen, including both skilled mechanics, <Iecorators atul laborers from tbe 'F. St Y. Construction Co., divided into 'different shifts, have worked 2-1 hours a day. The task which at Hrst SLcnied un impos.sible one has been com- pleteil and thc thousands who visited tbe store Thursday night witnessed a revelation that extended beyond Iheir finest imagination.
The formal opening reception started ut 7 p. in. Thursday, with city official!;, aiul others prominent in Cohunbus busi¬ ness life as special guests. Music throughout the evening was furnished by a rj-fiiecc orchestra and on^' of the out- standmg features of the prograni was a style show in which women's garments were worn and displayed by a corps of matuiequins. In addition to them a num¬ ber of young women btudenttt of Ohio State University parlicipatetl in this dis- play.

The store, which is now tiiidcr new
inatiagcmeut, is under the dli^cction of J. E. Pelletier as vice president and gen¬ eral nianagcr. Mr. Pclletier, who has been associated with some of thc large department stores in New York and Chi¬ cago, is much impressed with Coluinbus and will move lit» family to thc city to make it their permanent residence.
The new general manager plans to carry out thc traditions of the -Z. L. White store which have been associated with it during tbc long history of the establishment and to this new ideas of merchandising and service will be added. It will be of interest to know that Mr. Pclletier has chosen as his associates a staff composed! entirely of Columhus people and thc personnel of the entire store will be tnade up of residents of Columbus.
Members of Doardl
The management of thc business will be in the hands of an executive board of which Mr. Pclletier is chairman. Other members of this board arc: T.

The greatly enlarged salca force will be made up of 70O persons, all of wlioni have heen carefully selected for the var¬ ious departments to which (hey have been assigned.
A matter of special interest tu the pub¬ lic should be the fact that everything in the entire store is new, so that people who visit thc place will be unable to recognize any of the features which they had faeen aceuiitomed to seciiii; in the past.
